Facebook and Twitter accounts created

In April 2009 Facebook and Twitter accounts were created for Oleander, and new information was brought forth regarding the band’s alleged reuniting; on AlternativeAddiction.com, Thomas Flowers revealed that by late 2008, he began writing new songs for Oleander and finally got the group together for rehearsal. “I just picked up a guitar and started thinking about the guys, and the places we’ve been and the people we’ve met, and the music that we left behind. There was just so much left that I wanted to say and that I wanted to write.” Regarding the new material’s style, he also elaborated that it will “retain all the elements of Oleander’s musical past” but also reflect the band “where [they] are today, both lyrically, melodically, and sonically.” Flowers also expressed his desire to finish the record, which was funded entirely by the band, before touring despite various offers.
